Comments Thread For: Steve Cunningham in Tears Over Loss: I Was Cheated!

Former champion Steve Cunningham was very emotional after losing a controversial split decision to Tomasz Adamek in their IBF heavyweight title eliminator at the Sands Bethlehem Events Center in Bethlehem, PA. Adamek (48-2) came out on top with scores of 115-112 and 116-112, while Cunningham (25-5) was the winner of the third card with a score of 115-113 for Cunningham (25-5). Two of the judges gave Adamek three of the last four rounds.

Feeling pretty bad for Cunningham right now. That is a good quote, he just lost all of that time and effort he spent in training camp or otherwise preparing for this bout because of dodgy judging. Nevermind the actual fighting he did.

So there was 2 separate score card changes? This should be ruled a No Contest and the judges disciplined. This is professional prizefighting, you can only call what you see, but there shouldn't be any post fight fidgeting with the scorecards.
